Hi ikwyl6,

This is only possible for creating calendar events. From not only the mail app but system wide on IOS, MacOS and iPadOS. when there is text with a date or time you should be able to click it and create a calendar event from within that app.

This feature has to be enabled though.

"Siri can suggest events found in Mail, Messages, and Safari—such as flight reservations and hotel bookings—so you can add them easily in Calendar.

Go to Settings > Calendar > Siri & Search.
Turn on Show Siri Suggestions in App to allow Siri to suggest events found in other apps.

To allow Siri to make suggestions in other apps based on how you use Calendar, turn on Learn from this App."

Hope this helps
